Description

Technical Field and Disclosure of Invention

[0001] This invention relates to novel and therapeutically useful 4-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-naphthoic acid derivatives of the formula:

and salts thereof, wherein X is halogen atom, i.e. fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine; n is 1 or 2; R¹ is hydroxy group, lower alkoxy group, e.g. methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, isopropoxy, butoxy, isobutoxy, or amino group; and R² is hydrogen atom, lower alkanoyl group, e.g. acetyl, propionyl, butyryl, isobutyryl, etc. or carbamoyl group.

[0002] Japanese Patent Publication No. 43-22097 (1968), Chem. Pharm. Bull., 14, 324 (1966) and J. Med. Chem., 21, 1105 (1978) make mention of.compounds useful as an intermediate for the synthesis of a certain kind of analgesics, which compounds are represented by the formula:

wherein X' is hydrogen atom or methoxy group, R¹' is hydroxy group or C₁-₄-alkoxy group, and R^2' is hydrogen or C₁-₄-alkanoyl group.

[0003] The present inventors have synthesized a variety of the derivatives having gamma-aminobutyric acid (hereinafter abbreviated as GABA) moiety in their structure and investigated into their usefulness. As a result, this invention has been accomplished on the basis of the new finding that the compounds of the invention unexpectedly have potent diuretic and blood pressure lowering activity, although they show little protecting effects on the functions in which only the central nervous system participates such as convulsions or fatal convulsions induced by a GABA antagonist such as bicuculline or picrotoxin.

[0004] To the contrary, with the aforementioned known compounds these activity are extremely weak or substantially are not found.

[0005] The compounds of formula (I) wherein R² is hydrogen can be produced for example by the following Methods 1 to 3:

Method 1

[0006] Method of reducing an oxime compound of the formula:

wherein X, n and R¹ are the same as defined above. Preferably, catalytic reduction is carried out in the presence of a metallic catalyst such as Raney nickel, platinum oxide or palladium carbon in an inert solvent, preferably a C₁-₄-alkanol such as methanol, ethanol or the like or a C_1-4-alkanoic acid such as acetic acid, if desired in the presence of ammonia for prevention of possible polymerization, at a temperature of room temperature to 150°C, preferably 50 to 100°C under normal pressure or 50 to 150 atm of hydrogen. Here, hydrogen or hydrazine may be used as a hydrogen source. Otherwise, the reduction may be carried out by the use of metallic sodium in liquid ammonia containing methanol or by the use of both hydrochloric acid or acetic acid and zinc or tin.

Method 2

[0007] Method of subjecting a compound of the formula:

to ammonolysis in water or C_1-4-alkanol, wherein X, n and R¹ are the same as defined above, and Y is halogen atom, methylsulfonyloxy group, p-tolylsulfonyloxy group or the like as the reactive residue.

Method 3

[0008] Method of subjecting a compound of the formula:

to Leuckart reaction, wherein X, n and R¹ are the same as defined above. That is, a compound of formula (IV) and urea, ammonium formate or the like undergo fusion reaction in the presence of formic acid at 150-200°C and the resulting product is hydrolyzed to give the intended compounds.

[0009] The compounds of formula (I) wherein R' is hydrogen are allowed to react with a reactive derivative of C₁-₄-alkanic acid such as acid halide, acid anhydride or the like to give the compounds of formula (I) wherein R² is C₁-₄-alkanoyl. They are allowed to react with potassium cyanate or sodium cyanate in an . aqueous C₁-₄-alkanol to give the compounds of formula (I) wherein R² is carbamoyl.

[0010] The compounds of formula (I) wherein R¹ is hydroxy group are allowed to esterify with C_l-₄-alkanol in the presence of mineral acid such as hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid to give the compounds of formula (I) wherein R¹ is C₁-₄-alkoxy. The ester compounds thus obtained or their free carboxylic acids are allowed to react with ammonia to give the compounds of formula (I) wherein R¹ is amino.

[0011] The N-C_l-₄-alkanoyl compounds and the ester compounds or the amido compounds each of formula (I) are subjected to hydrolysis to give, reversely, the amino compounds and the free carboxylic acids of formula (I), respectively.

[0012] The compounds of formula (I) of this invention produced in this way are present in the form of diastereoisomers, with their tetralin ring containing asymmetric carbon atoms at the 2- and 4-positions.

[0013] When the mixture of the diastereoisomers is fused under heating at 60 to 200°C, preferably 100 to 140°C, the 2,4-cis isomer (simply referred to as "cis-isomer") causes ring closure to form 1,4-methano-2- benzazepin-3-one derivative of the formula:

wherein X and n are the same as above. Since the compound of formula (V) is neutral, the 2,4-trans isomer (simply referred to as "trans-isomer") can be isolated by the extraction with acid or alkali. The compounds of formula (V) can be converted, upon hydrolysis by acid or alkali, into the cis-isomer of the amino-acid.

[0014] The cis-isomer and the trans-isomer thus separated are respective racemates, and the racemates can be separated into respective optically active isomers, for example by optically resolving the ester compounds with an optically active carboxylic acid, e.g. tartaric acid, dibenzoyltartaric acid, camphorsulfonic acid, diacetyltartaric acid, phenylsuccinic acid, mandelic acid, malic acid, lactic acid, etc. or the amino-protected carboxylic acid compound with an optically active base (e.g. natural alkaloid such as brucine, quinine, cinchonidine, etc., optically active a-phenethylamine, a-amino acid ester, etc.).

[0015] Where a carboxylic acid compound of formula (II), (III) or (IV) optically active at the 2-position is used, respective optical isomers can be obtained only through the foregoing procedure of separation into the cis-isomer and the trans-isomer.

[0016] The compounds (I) of the invention may be, if desired, treated with acid (e.g. inorganic acid such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, nitric acid, or organic acid such as acetic acid, oxalic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, lactic acid, citric acid, etc.) or with inorganic base (e.g. sodium hydroxide, sodium bicarbonate, potassium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, etc.) to form their acid or base adducts.

[0017] As will be apparent from the description above, the compounds (I) of this invention include all of the diastereoisomers, cis-isomers, transisomers and optically active isomers and salts of them.

[0018] The diuretic activity of the compounds (I) according to this invention will be shown hereinbelow. The transisomers have more potent activity than the cis-isomers.

Test Method

[0019] According to the method of Lipschitz et al (W. L. Lipschitz, Z. Haddian, A. Kerpsser : J. Pharmacol. Exp. Therap., 79, 97 (1943)), groups each of 6 male Wistar rats (weighing 180 to 220 g) were used. In preconditioning, they were not fed with any food for 18 hours and further with any food and water for 3 hours. Test group of the rats was orally administered with a solution or suspension of the test compounds of this invention in isotonic saline at a dosage of 25 ml/kgand was placed in metabolism cages, and urine of them was collected in the course of 6 hours.

[0020] The diuretic activity is calculated by the following equation in terms of increment percentage of the test group to control group:

Results

[0021] Under the same test conditions above, 4-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-naphthoic acid hydrochloride, methyl trans-4-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-naphthoate hydrochloride, ethyl trans-4-amino-6,7-dimethoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-naphthoate hydrochloride did not show any results significantly different from the control group. With GABA per se, the diuretic activity could not be found even at a high dosage of 1000 mg/ kg.

[0022] Blood pressure lowering action due to the compound of Example 1 a which is typical of this invention is shown in the following:

Test Method

(1) Experiment with Spontaneous Hypertensive Rats (SHR)

[0023] Spontaneous hypertensive male rats (SHR) of 28 to 30 weeks age were used for the experiment and blood pressure was measured according to tail compressing method. These rats were preliminarily divided into control group and test group (six rats/one group) so that both the groups have the same mean blood pressure.

[0024] A suspension of the test compounds in 0.5% methylcellulose solution was administered orally to the test group at a dosage of 2 ml/kg and after 1, 5, 7 and 9 hours blood pressure was measured. Dosage required for lowering the blood pressure value before the administration by 20 mm Hg was determined.

(2) Experiment with DOCA Hypertensive Rats

[0025] According to the method of Willard, male Wistar rats of 8 weeks age were made DOCA (deoxycorticosterone acetate) hypertensive rats by operation and among them, rats whose blood pressure values after 6 weeks had reached upward of 150 mm Hg were used as test animal.

[0026] The experiment was carried out in the same conditions as those of SHR above. Results

[0027] In both the Experiments, the blood pressure lowering action was gradually and slowly exhibited and its maximum effect was exerted 7 to 9 hours after the administration of the test compound.

[0028] The compounds of formula (I) of this invention can be administered orally or parenterally as pharmaceutical composition by the combination with a suitable, conventional pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The pharmaceutical composition may be the form of tablets, capsules, granules, powders, injectable solutions or the like.

[0029] The daily dose of the compounds (I) for human adults ranges usually from about 10 mg to about 500 mg for oral administration in single dose or multiple doses, but may vary depending on the age, weight and/or conditions of disease to be treated and response to the medication.

[0030] The invention will be hereinafter described more concretely by the following examples, but they are not to be construed as limiting the invention.

Example 1

The hydrogen uptake is completed in about 3 hours, and then the whole is allowed to cool. The catalyst is filtered off and the filtrate is concentrated. Ethyl acetate is added to the residue and cooled. Crystals are deposited and collected by filtration to give 75 g of 6,7-dichloro-1,4-methano-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-2-benzazepin-3-one, m.p. 196-200°C, which is ring-closure product of the foregoing cis-isomer. The filtrate solution is washed with water once, dried and concentrated under heating on oil bath at 130°C for 3 hours. After cooling, ethyl acetate is added and the deposited crystals are collected by filtration to recover an additional 14 g of the ring-closure isomer. The filtrate solution is diluted with 1 I of ethyl acetate and 150 ml of 20% aqueous hydrochloric acid is added with stirring, whereupon white needles separate out. The crystals are collected by suction filtration to give 76 g of crude ethyl trans-4-amino-7,8-dichloro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-naphthoate hydrochloride. The aqueous layer of the filtrate solution is separated, the organic layer is extracted with water several times and the aqueous layers combined are saturated with sodium chloride. An additional 23 g of crystalline product is recovered. The product, when recrystallized from ethanol, shows a m.p. of 249-251°C (decomposition).

Heating is conducted at 70-80°C with stirring for 7 hours. After cooling, the catalyst is filtered off and the solvent is distilled off. Acetone is added to the semi-solid residue and cooled. The precipitated crystals are collected by filtration to give 17 g of 7,8-dichioro-1,4-methano-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-2- benzazepin-3-one, m.p. 215-217°C. The mother liquor is concentrated, heated at 100-120°C for 2 hours and cooled followed by crystallization from acetone. Upon filtration, additional 3 g of ring-closure product is obtained.
